Faculty Affairs The Women's Caucus Advising Program
The 2006 - 2007
Advising Program
Our advising program matches senor women
(associate and full professors) with self-identified junior women who
want an advising relationship. We send new women faculty a survey
of interest in advising in October. If they are interested, the mentoring
committee matches them with an available advisor, preferably on the same track
and on the same campus and who is outside their department. Both are given clear
instructions on how to initiate and define the relationship. This is a one year commitment
wherein the advisors and protégés report to the mentoring director on a
quarterly basis. To evaluate and improve the program, we ask for an
annual review.
